So you've got a working prototype... now what? Taking your hardware product from garage to factory can be a stressful and costly step with countless unknowns, but it doesn't have to be that way! In this group, we'll teach you about all those crucial, yet hard-to-google manufacturing topics like how to apply design for manufacturing and assembly best practices, how to select a factory, how to design injection molded parts, how to decide upon retail margins, how to protect your IP, how to design quality control tests, how to navigate certifications, and more. Each class will be run by an engineer from Dragon Innovation, the hardware manufacturing firm behind some major products like MakerBot and Pebble.
